Default Please help

Hello friends,
I am reaching out to this community because I don't know where else to go. I'm reaching out to the community to see if anyone could kindly help. My brother was involved in a tragic accident a couple of years ago where a motorist hit him on his 2001 Harley Softail Deuce. My brother would love to ride and he always helped others in similar situations. The accident left my brother paralyzed on his right side with limited speech. The bike was recovered and sits in my mother's garage and need some repairs. We don't have much funding because everything is going to to doctors, medication , hospital equipment etc. Every day my brother sits and asks if his bike can be repaired, and I don't know what we can do which causes him to become depressed. I honestly feel if someone could help us repair his bike he would find it within himself to get walking again and motivated to be happy. Like I said, I don't know what else to do please help us.
Thank you so much

You could always start a GoFundMe page:

https://www.gofundme.com/?utm_source...2d392c72f1796b

Many of our generous members would contribute, I'm sure.

Please read the HD Forums rules. You have been posting this all over and that's considered spam. If you don't stop, you will be removed!

As to the suggestion to start a Gofundme, we don't allow fund raising here unless it's cleared by the people who own HD Forums, IB Brands. In particular we don't allow new members to post them. We have no way of determining if it's a scam.
